About CITY UNDER SIEGE
London is a city in flames. Tensions are high and a critical situation is about to go from bad to worse. The Prime Minister wants to send a message, and the SAS will be the ones to deliver it. Emotional detachment is my specialty. I’m ruthless and cut throat, but there is nobody better. Sarah Tatem is an innocent. Caught up in a world in which she doesn’t belong, and trying desperately to do the right thing. My job is to keep her safe long enough to get what’s needed, and bring an end to this siege of terror. But something has changed. I’ve learned that the only thing stronger than loyalty is love, and now she’s gone. My name is Lieutenant Tom Harper, and I’m about to unleash hell.Add CITY UNDER SIEGE to your Goodreads shelf here!
My Review
As soon as I saw the cover for City Under Siege, I needed to have it. And it's safe to say it didn't disappoint. Filled with action, danger, and chemistry, this book kept me hooked from start to finish.
There was definitely sparks between Tom and Sarah. Although this isn't a conventional relationship and they don't do all that many coupley things, it's easy to feel the chemistry and heat between them. I especially felt the depths of their emotions towards the end.
I won't say anything about the plot other than it held my attention and was well developed. I did think the ending could have used a couple of extra chapters to make it a bit more gradual and satisfying, but it did tie up loose ends like I wanted.
Overall, another great read by this author. Con still holds a special place in my heart but I'd definitely recommend this.

Read an excerpt from CITY UNDER SIEGE
I was practically kneeling in front of the screen as I tried to understand what I was seeing. Men were shouting at one another, though their words were indecipherable. The person filming darted out from behind a shipping container to take more shots. Everything was happening so fast, the camera moving wildly with the person it was attached to. Finally, I realised it was a body cam by the way it was flailing and jerking all over the place. I had no idea what shipyard they were in, but it made sense that the assault would be there rather than a boat. They would have wanted to take the terrorists after the handover happened, just to be sure. A soldier came into shot across the way, crouched behind another container, and I guessed he was one of ours. Covered from head to toe, it was impossible to know who it was, but I held my breath anyway. The camera at least became steady as the gunfire slowly ebbed, though focused now on the last of the targets. In the periphery of the screen, the kneeling soldier leant further forward to take a shot when he was yanked sharply backwards in a move that literally saved his life. As the last shot rang out, sounding a death knell to the terrorists who’d been responsible for taking so many innocent civilian lives, the rest of the team seemed to realise what I already knew. The rescuer, the guardian angel who’d ripped his teammate away from the path of certain death, had exposed himself to make the ultimate sacrifice, saving his friend’s life at the expense of his own. Soldiers darted in front of the camera again, and a few more indistinguishable voices called out before the silence. The excruciating, insufferable, tormenting silence, broken only by the clear voice that cut through the darkness like a scythe, ripping a hole through my heart as it did. “Man down.”
